Answer:By definition, perpendicular line are two lines that intersect at right angles. In other words, the angle made by two lines should be 90°. Therefore, the use of distance formula does not help because it only tells you if the sides are equal. It does not tell you about the intercepted angle.

A technique that can help you to know if two straight lines are perpendicular is is you find their slopes. Let's say the slope of line 1 is m1 and the slope of line 2 is m2. If m1*m2 yields a product of -1, then the lines are perpendicular. This is because if m1 is the negative reciprocal of m2, the lines are perpendicular. But if m1=m2, the lines are parallel, meaning they don't intersect at all.

Therefore, the answer is: Find the slopes and show that their product is -1.

Miguel collected aluminum cans for recycling. He collected a total of 150 cans. If 58% of the cans he collected were soda cans h
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Given:

• Total number of cans collected = 150

,

• Percent of cans that were soda = 58%

Let's find the number of other cans he collected.

To find the number of other cans, since the percent of soda is 58%, let's find the pecent of other cans.

Percent of other cans = 100% - 58% = 42%

The percent of other cans collected was 42%.

Now, to find the number of other cans collected, let's find 42% of the total number of cans collected 150.

We have:

42\text{ \% }\ast150\Longrightarrow0.42\times150=63

Therefore, the number of other cans collected is 63 cans.

ANSWER:

63 cans
